    Probably tough to give a heads up though when it's not scheduled down time.

    And not all air masses come directly over the Lakes. I still think NW flow orographics like downsloping off the terrain in CNE/NNE plays more of a role in modifying local air masses advecting into SNE.

    lol... it's only real if the jester of Tolland wants it to be.

    I'm on mobile, can't see locations. Where'd ya move to?
  5. powderfreak
    Haha, it's funny because every single one of us replay past events to see how we would've fared if we move.

    Man the sun came out back here in NY and wow did it get humid/hot. The type of stuff where there's steam rising off the pavement, like walking outside into a steam room at a spa. Dews around 70F.

    Fairly widespread 2-4" around the Albany area.

    I'm down in Albany at the old homestead and parents rain gauge has 2.75" in it eyeballing from a distance. Just torrential rain all night long.

    The irony is I feel like we ask you that same question all the time in the winter when you make a comment about a model.

    Forgot to post these, but earlier this week we had several days of awesome valley fog and undercast each morning. This was from Thursday morning while preparing for a zipline photoshoot. We are standing at 3,600ft at the top of the Gondola, with the summit ridge behind us at 4,000-4,395ft. Out in the distance in front of us is the Worcester Range with the ridge elevations generally 2,800-3,600ft.

    Yeah I'm sure he put himself in a location that enhanced the wind (ie near a structure or between two barriers), as I know how this works...they go look around for the best footage and locations that viewers will find exciting. Still though, I bet there's some embellishment but it's not because he's trying to get viewers, but because he loves exciting weather and was in the heat of the battle. You can never truly take out the inner weenie...

    84/65 this afternoon is warmer and more humid than the climo norm in July here. Of course we had a low of 49F and excellent sleeping wx last night, but dews back to 65F with mid-80s is hot for mid-September. I can't believe we had a solid frost already and yet it keeps being summer.

    It's all been forensically traced back to flatulance caused by a roadside burrito purchased from a food truck.

    When is that? We'll have to grab a beer.

    Maybe. I think of Columbus Day weekend as peak on Mansfield, while in town it's usually the week after. I think Gene's timeline is pretty similar to what I've seen in Stowe Village...mid-October but by then the 1500-2000ft+ elevations are toast.
  16. powderfreak
    lol at pretty far behind already. Normal peak is still a month away. It always seems to start slow and then moves real fast once we get to Oct 1st.
  17. powderfreak
    That's unfortunate, haha... looks like a jacked up weenie and then two normal dudes walk by like it's just a downpour.

    If it's not tremendous, it's boring. Not boring.

    Donald did say this would be the wettest hurricane with the most water...amounts of water that haven't been seen in a while.

    Probably domestic terrorism to boot. In all likelihood, it's a failed safety mechanism or a spark from some malfunction somewhere in the feed system.

    This time-lapse video of a wet microburst is insane. The force at which that water comes out of the cloud is nuts. Like just dumping a bucket of water out of the sky.
  22. powderfreak
    Speaking from experience huh?
  23. powderfreak
    Funny I made this post because it looks like there was proof of snowflakes flying at 5,000ft in the Adirondacks when this initially moved in. This video from a local weather anchor out of Plattsburgh, NY does show snowflakes on Whiteface.

    I wasn't sure how warm it was supposed to get but I'm impressed with the 20F dew point climb in 24 hours. Low 40s dews yesterday at midday to low-60s today. Temps are in the 60s with low clouds and drizzle but it feels humid again.
  25. powderfreak
    Chilly low to mid 50s at the more northern NNE ASOS sites this evening. A cold rain for sure after all the heat and humidity of this summer.
